Supplier price lists

By maintaining supplier price lists in your system, you can take advantage of promotional prices and volume-based offers when planning your purchases and order items for the best available prices.

Supplier price lists are configured in the Supplier ledger workspace, so that even if the Inventory module is not included in your license, you can maintain and use supplier prices.
When a document is being saved, the system automatically applies the prices to any non-stock items on an invoice.
If the Inventory module is enabled in your system, the system applies supplier prices to both stock and non-stock items on purchase orders.

Suppliers share their product information by sending electronic versions of their catalogues or their price lists, or by making them available for download from their websites.

Generally, some price lists include sales prices intended for all clients, others intended for those who buy occasionally, or those who buy in large volumes.

If your company is a preferred customer of a specific supplier or buys in large volumes, the supplier might offer wholesale prices or special prices to your company on particular items or on its entire inventory.

In Visma.net ERP, you can import these price lists (or enter them manually) for each supplier separately by using the Supplier price worksheets (AP202010) window.

If the Volume pricing functionality is enabled in your system, you can enter or import tiered prices, which are based on the quantities of items purchased from a supplier.

If some of your suppliers use promotions, in Visma.net ERP, you can enter their promotional prices or temporary prices for specific items.
Such prices have expiration dates, and they are not applicable after the expiration date.
To enter promotional prices, select the Promotional check box for each price record in the Supplier prices (AP202000) window.
You can also import a promotional price list by using the Supplier price worksheets (AP202010) window and mark all the prices as promotional by selecting the Promotional check box of the worksheet.

If the Volume pricing functionality is enabled in your system, you can enter information about a particular supplier's price tiers by using the Supplier prices (AP202000) window.
You can enter tiers by specifying for each tier a break quantity, a price, and a date when the price should be in effect.

If you are going to remove a document from the Hold status, you can refresh the prices if you believe they may have been recently updated in the system.
To update the prices, select Recalculate prices in the Actions menu of the window toolbar of the respective window.
